You are driving due north on i-81 to come to jmu with a speed of 10 m/s, suddenly you realize you forgot your book. You make a u

-turn to go home, pick it up and now after 20s you are driving south with a speed of 20 m/s. What is your displacement after 20s?

first we make a U turn and travel towards home in t = 20 s

so the distance of home from initial position is

d_1 = v*t_1

d_1 = 10*20 = 200 m

Now after picking up the book we travel back with speed 20 m/s

so again after t = 20 s the displacement is given as

d_2 = v*t = 20*20 = 400 m

so the net displacement is given as

\vec d = \vec d_2 - \vec d_1

\vec d = 400 - 200 = 200 m

so it will be displaced by total displacement 200 m

A 100 Kg man is diving off a 50 meter cliff. What is his kinetic energy when he is 20 meters from the water?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

K.E=29.403125J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass M=100

Height 50-20=30m

Generally the equation for velocity before impact is is is mathematically given by

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2*9.8*30}

v=24.25

Generally the equation for Kinetic Energy is is mathematically given by

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\frac{1}{2}*100*(24.25)^2\\

K.E=29403.125J

K.E=29.403125J

what is the approximate weight of a 20-kg cannonball on the moon if the acceleration due to gravity is 1.6m/s^2
monitta
On Earth, a cannonball with a mass of 20 kg would weigh 196 Newtons.
With the formula F=mg, where F is the weight in Newtons, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth which is 9.8m/s^2.
F=20kg x 9.8m/s^2= 196 Newtons

BUT on the moon, acceleration due to gravity is 1.6 m/s^2,
so F=mg=20kgx1.6m/s^2= 32 N

The linear momentum of a car of mass 1000 kg moving with a speed of 10 m/s is-----kg.m/s. HELP ME
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

The kilogram-meter per second (kg · m/s or kg · m · s -1 ) is the standard unit of momentum . Reduced to base units in the International System of Units ( SI ), a kilogram-meter per second is the equivalent of a newton-second (N · s), which is the SI unit of impulse .

A car has a momentum of -456 kg*m/s. What direction is it moving?
Solnce55 [7]

backward movement

because momentum = mass × speed

And mass must be in positive value..

so negative value is speed

which moving backward..
